Conditioning perches perform double duty by providing a comfortable place for birds to perch while offering functional benefits. Choose from selection of Conditioning Perches to provide your bird with perching variety and to keep your bird's nails and beak trimmed and healthy.

For a lightweight alternative to cement bird perches, we recommend the Safety Pumice Perch. This unique conditioning perch features a textured plastic base with real pumice on the sides to trim claws and condition beaks. Irregular shape provides healthy exercise for your bird preventing sore, stiff, and even arthritic feet.
